I would bet so. 10mm i think they are all that. But if not, you can get the fitting from them for the Kaw side of it, and then get the fitting from them for the Zook side of it...cos the ends will all be the same, and they supply for both bikes...You have a PM btw...keep it hush hush...lmao

Yeah, i thought so. I replied. Go for it man! im gonna get some this week too. Im on the fence tho, cos if i go with that swinger conversion im going to have to buy a longer single break line, as right now i have a rubber hose leading from the MC to a hard line, then one leading from the hardline to the caliper. But the swinger doesnt have hardlines as they switched over to all rubber after a certain year, so ill have to buy one long steel line. Should i just do it now and bypass the hardline? And will a couple extra inches affect my brake power?? I wouldnt think so since its a sealed pressurized system?

Yeah I'd bypass the hardline now. And as for losing braking power. Tough to say because there's absolutely NO flex in those hardline plus they're a smaller diameter than flexible lines so I would think they're offer more brake pressure BUT then again you'll be dealing with a SS brake line which is supposed to have little or no flex at all. As for the couple of extra inches affecting brake pressure I'd say no. Cuz yeah its a seal system and basically fluid is gonna be occupying whatever extra length you have on there. Plus if I remember correctly force travels through liquid VERY efficently so any extra fluid in the system is gonna make too small of a difference for you too feel anyways. UNLESS its was a very BIG distance but we're talking about only a few inches so you should be fine

Thats what i was thinking. Plus even if i did buy a line now that was too short for the new swinger, i can always get a male to male adaptor they sell and get a lil 5 incher line or something.

NOW YOUR THINKING WITH THE OL' NOGGIN! But like I always tell my brother, "Your better giving yourself more to work with then less. Cuz its easy to cut off excess but a pain in the ass trying to get more _________" And you basically fill in the blank with whatever you just happen to be working with.

Lol great minds think alike. Plus little ****y minds think alike also because that's the same response I would get from my bro when I'd give him sh!t after he cut something short

Hey elky how's it hanging.....
TCk, Bah fvck me man. Would you believe I can't get "gas safe" o-rings from any shops around here????? Gotta wait till Robert Barr contacts me back. Friggin gay! Those o-rings are holding EVERYTHING up. The only useful thing I could get done today was putting the chain on BUT I couldn't even finish that job because I couldn't put the sprocket case back on
